Go Metro Weekends, May 20-22

It’s another great weekend to Go Metro – there’s fantastic cultural, music and walking(!) events all across our great city. Tonight make sure to show your TAP card when you take the Gold Line to ArtNight Pasadena for discounts on ArtNight merchandise. Saturday is packed with stuff to do, including the Big Parade L.A. – it’s not your traditional parade but a community walk through L.A. meant to explore the city’s diverse neighborhoods. If you prefer a jubilee to a parade there’s the Silver Lake Jubilee all weekend, and Metro riders get two for one entrance tickets! On Sunday, why not combine Metro and connecting Amtrak service at Union Station to get out of town and visit the California Strawberry Festival in Oxnard – there’s a free shuttle to the event from the Oxnard Amtrak station.

All events are subject to change or may be be sold out, please check with the venue before making plans. To plan your trip and to check all other transit options, please consult Google Transit or the Metro Trip Planner.
